Rebellion
A man struggles to defuse an explosive situation with tragic results in this riveting drama based on actual events. In 1988, France was wracked with political division. After a band of separatists seize a police station, twenty-six officers are taken hostage and three are killed. A counter-terrorism expert is assigned to deal with the situation, and while a peaceful solution at first seems possible, political forces soon necessitate more aggressive options. Mathieu Kassovitz ("La Haine") both directs and stars.
